Note: This class is currently FULL. If you would like to be placed on the waiting list, please call Customer Service at 800-367-9327.

Today’s crochet is not just about Kleenex box covers and granny squares. With all the wonderful and exciting new yarns and the fabulous new books and patterns, crochet has something to offer to everyone...even you knitters, spinners, and weavers out there! Not only is crochet fun to learn and faster than knitting, it is very hot in the fashion industry right now. With four basic stitches you can make an infinite variety of projects in a short period of time. In this class you will learn not only the basic crochet stitches and edgings, but you will also learn about gauge, yarn weights and correlating hooks, crochet tools, and reading basic crochet directions. Crochet is invaluable as an embellishment for knitted or woven projects, so come and join us to see what crochet can do for you! A size G/6 hook and a single skein of yarn will be provided to get you started.Skill Level: BeginnerInstructor: Lise GillDates: Saturdays, 6/1, 6/8, 6/15, 6/22, 6/29, 7/6Time: 8 - 10amMaterials required:
